Market Vendor Application — INIT 2026
Section 1 — Before You Apply
This isn't a high-volume commercial event. It's a boutique festival on a 67-acre property on Salt Spring Island. If that scale works for your business and your practice — and if what you're bringing feels aligned with what we're building — we want to hear from you.
Booth fees are confirmed upon acceptance. Submitting this form doesn't lock in any pricing.
→ Read the Vendor Policy & Guidelines before applying
Curated vendor presence across the festival run
Booth space + 1 complimentary pass included; up to 2 additional at a discounted rate.
Vendors pay a booth fee. Fee is confirmed upon acceptance based on setup size, product type, and infrastructure needs.
INIT Vendor Village is a small, curated market on the mountain. Independent makers, product vendors, and service providers who fit the culture of the festival.
